My mantra for songwriting is, “Be Howlin’ Wolf’s “How Many More Years” or getting sidetracked with other projects: Kin, still, be quiet, be patient—and the song Ray Charles’ “Hit the Road, Jack”—they’re a collection of songs he wrote with memoirist will tell you what it wants to be.” I just coax all performance.

Artists as Mentors A mentor is a trusted friend, a teacher, an experienced “I’ve learned that person who encourages us to do people will forget what our best, to achieve more than you said, people will forget what you did, we may believe we can. Many but people will never successful people give credit forget how you made them feel.” to key people who have helped —Maya Angelou “As one chosen by destiny and richly endowed by nature, the artist must have a sense of obligation them on their way. toward those who are denied these riches. It is for him to repay nature and to offer his gifts to humanity, in The mentor-protégé relationship all humility of heart, as an act of gratitude for the grace bestowed upon him.” can be one of the most important —Serge Koussevitzky in our lives. In this exhibit are a few examples of people who have led and continue to lead the way for others. There are thousands more. Are there people who have helped you whom you want to thank? Are there people to whom you need to reach out a hand? “The life and essence of art – whether it is a painting, music or dance – lies in expressing a wellspring of emotion, the universal realm of the human spirit. It is a melding of the individual and the universal. That is why great art reaches out beyond ethnic and national barriers to move people the world over.” — Daisaku Ikeda, Founder of ICAP and President of Soka Gakkai International This exhibit is sponsored by the International Committee of Artists for Peace (ICAP), a coalition of artists and organizations dedicated to promoting global peace and individual happiness through concerts, exhibitions, educational activities and programs for young people.

I Got a Woman Ray Charles
I got a woman ray charles Continue Born in Albany, Georgia, during the Depression, and blind at the age of seven, Ray Charles Robinson certainly had the deck stacked against him from the start. But, as he himself said, he was not good because he was blind; he was good because he was good at what he did. Influenced by both pop vocal styles crooners like Nat King Cole and the smooth West Coast Blues by Charles Brown, Charles began cutting a rather unsightly (yet interesting) leap of blues and rhythm and blues in New Orleans. But it is the musical passion for travel that will lead to two great highs in his career. In 1959, the singer cemented his gospel and blues influence (which he had already marshaled on cuts like I Got a Woman) for a rave-up called What I Said. The song is widely regarded now as the first soul hit record, challenging yet sensual, relentlessly secular yet burning with religious fervor. In 1962, he cemented his legacy by releasing the album Modern Sounds in the Country and Western Music, which somehow poured soul into the country's Western standards, such as Born To Lose and I Can't Stop Loving You. Perhaps one of the most brilliant interpretive albums ever released, it has done more to integrate contemporary American music than almost any other LP in history. And while he more or less settled into an old chain of level fame after that, he remains an institution for his insistence on holding various forms of music in places that shouldn't have logically worked, but with it, he did.

Ray Charles Early Life Ray Charles Robinson was born on September 23, 1930 in Albany, Georgia. His parents were Aretha and Bailey Robinson. Ray was a very smart boy. Before the age of five he knew how to play the piano. Around then came something the Robinson family thought would never happen. His younger brother, at the age of four, drowned in his mother’s washtub. Ray tried to save him, but already going blind and only five, he couldn’t. After this happened, and after ray went blind because of glaucoma , his mother and father decided it was best for him to go to a school for the blind. While attending Florida school for the deaf and blind his mother and father died. This left him a poor blind orphan, though he used what he learned at school to earn money. Soon later, Ray began to sign contracts, and his career began. Music Time! In 1949 Ray Charles released his first song with the name Confession Blues. Around a year later, he moved to Los Angles and spent the next few years with the blues musician Lowell Fulson, working as his director. He sung with Swing Time Records, and soon after Ray recorded Two more R&B hits. The names of the songs were Baby, Let Me Hold Your Hand (1951), and Kissa Me Baby (1952). These two songs reached No. 8 and 5. The following year Ahmet Ertegun signed him to Atlantic. Career Ray Charles’ most famous song was Hit The Road Jack, and his first song was confession blues.
